Customer Reviews for Tongue Drum 14" 14 Notes Dish Pan Drum Handpan Music Book Steel Drum Purple

These sound amazing. I love the instant serenity these thumb drums radiate when played solo, but it's so other worldly when played together with another.

Easy to use and gets me into a very high vibrational meditative state.

I’ve tried several tongue drums and this is by far the best. I am pleased with its quality and aesthetics. First, all 14 notes are in perfect tune and playable in all octaves. Second, the tone is more “wooden” than metallic, so the vibrations from discordant notes don’t compete with each other. Third, the drum is tuned to C major, which is a convenient key for a variety of music styles. Fourth, the decorative rope weaving around the drum is tightly woven and secure, so it won’t fall off as it has on other drums I’ve tried. Finally, the drum is beautifully designed. All in all, I highly recommend this drum; it will reward you with hours of pleasure each time you play it.

There is a little book of several songs that can be played on this tongue drum. I learned to play Twinkle Twinkle little star very easily. I do have some music experience. I grew up playing the violin. The book helps to make it easy by using a number code on the key to be played. Once you know where the keys are, you can then easily play the songs directly from the book. If you spend just a little time thinking through the scale of this instrument, you should be able to play songs from other books. When I bought my tongue drum there weren't any books out there for songs that I recognized and few books at all. There are a couple out there now. I love the sound of this meditation drum. You can play this with your bare hands, with rubber finger mallets, or regular rubber mallets on sticks. The color of the drum that I purchased is turquoise and I find it to be a pleasant color while playing and I like leaving it out when I'm not playing it.

I wanted a sturdy, portable tongue drum with good tone in a C major scale, and that is exactly what I got. Note: product description is somewhat confusing. The drum is not, of course, pure copper.

Beautiful drum and easy to play. Relaxing sound as well

Beautiful meditative sound. There are certain sweet spots on each tongue. I haven’t even attempted to play a real song, it’s very easy to just get carried away improvising with it.

This drum produces a beautiful deep resonance. Surprisingly wonderful sound for the price. I'm a Sound Therapist and use it in my practice. I am so pleased with it and highly recommend it.

One note was flat and never heard back form seller how to fix it.
